Amazing Service from the @EuropacUK team helping to screen people at risk of pancreatic cancer. Self referral of at risk groups possible. @NPaCA_NATCAN @OfficialPCA @PancreaticCanUK @letswinpc
A father’s life has been saved thanks to a research trial detecting early #pancreaticcancer, a cancer with one of the lowest survival rates 💜 Adam Eshborn thanked @EuropacUK for spotting changes in his pancreas as part of the screening programme. More: bit.ly/4hW23RX
